92Oh, and by the way, Terry Jones is a liberalimg!
upneutraldown
39Ken's newest article on Atheismimg almost perfectly defines an ad hominem argument, and the 'See Also' seems to imply Carl Sagan smoking pot is evidence for Christianity. No flying cats, yet.
upneutraldown
27Andy downgrades the priorityimg of a potential 2012 presidential candidate. Among his reasons for doing so, nestled between "associates with pro-choice persons" and "associates with RINOs," is "Has said he is not going to run."
upneutraldown
253Our nation's history? Who gives a damn about that?img
upneutraldown
-43Andy: You don't actually have to do anything to be virtuous, just think nice thoughts.img
upneutraldown
-46Please let thisimg be a parodist! For the sake of Humanity! And watch out for rhinos in the Senate!

25If you call him, heimg willimg come.img
upneutraldown
48More grade inflation by Andyimg When called out by a new userimg on his lack of math skills Andy simply gives his student an extra point. So much for academic honesty. Update: Daniel justifiably blocks himimg for being one of us because genuine conservatives can't possibly possess upward of 2nd grade math skills.
upneutraldown
-23When you're done planting flags, Andy, perhaps you can finish developing your lectureimg?
upneutraldown
96Ken blathers about "some guy by the name of Sid" to Karajou: And it only took him four editsimg. With his delightful irony TK says "... that those who cannot be successful in life criticize...."img. How many times is Obama criticized on the main page? UPDATE: Ken: "I never said a thing!"img
upneutraldown
113 Andy: Conservapedia users don't have insecurity issues, low self esteem, or narcissismimg...hahahahahaha
upneutraldown
69Daniel Pulido gets all Ken and begins the conservapedia anti-Islam project!img
upneutraldown
42TK thinks that saying "the series themselves are harmless if not taken seriously." is a "Personal opinion, not supported by any citations"img. Harry Potter is always dangerous to children.
upneutraldown
132Ed there ain't no censorship on CP Poor serves up a big dose of censorshipimg after declaring that calling someone out on their quote mining constitutes liberal name-callingimg.
upneutraldown
71It's a con trick so it must be liberal valuesimg says TK
upneutraldown
114Oi! Smeg Ed! Which dictionary definition of "gentleman" are you using exactly?img
upneutraldown
45Ed: It is a "disingenuous misleading argument"img to insinuate that there is anything wrong with the nutjobs among us.
upneutraldown
93Did you know that the APA is...erm...well, we don't really know.img All Ed gave us was a period. Literally.
upneutraldown
33CP: Going to church on Sunday rather than shopping makes you happierimg. Source: ..yes, if you're a Catholic or Protestant white woman living in a state where Sunday shopping was banned, but now is allowed. Maybe.
upneutraldown
103Remember the proposed Critical Thinking in Math course? The one which aimed to "encourage adults to keep their minds sharp through mathematics, and fend off mental decline". Professor Schlafly: 39 + 4 = 44img
upneutraldown
66Newly-given-block-rights junior sysop goon Daniel Pulido tries to impress the powers that be with his toughness by issuing a 90/10 blockimg after just one edit, and issues the standard new-user abuseimg, complete with the standard explicit insinuation that the user isn't using his real name. This site is attracting new non-parodist contributors rapidly!
upneutraldown
68Andy must be feeling sorry for himself - now messing with his blog equates to "violent protests" and "liberal censorship."img
upneutraldown
92Andy declares that protests in Ireland surrounding Tony Blair's book signing are an example of liberal censorship, British styleimg, entirely oblivious to the fact that Ireland has not been part of the UK for the best part of a century. Good thing he's not a world history teacher!img UPDATE: Andy's world history knowledge explains the confusion. Why is it British? Because egg-throwing is a uniquely British phenomenon!img
upneutraldown
44Ken: The time of stalking false liberal ideologies is over. It is time to move in for the kill!img Um...what?
upneutraldown
74A grand totalimg of 16 User/User Talk edits, 5 CP/CP Talk edits, and two mainspace edits (both of which are to homework "articles" that don't belong in the mainspace). Clearly such unproductive behavior violates 90/10 - and thus, Davidkon... gets Edit rights.img Well-deserved in this meritocracy!
upneutraldown
252LyleT: This page is completely plagiarized and should be deleted.img JacobB: Denied.img LyleT: Ok, a compromise: I removed the plagiarized material.img JacobB: Denied.img LyleT: Ok, I REWROTE the plagiarized material.img TK: Denied.img And don't you dare expose my dishonesty!img"
upneutraldown
295Kyle: "Is this really needed?"img
TK: "Of course!" *inserts Skype highlighting*img
Kyle: "Okay, you're the boss, just lemme remove the weird Skype stuff..."img
TK: "No!"img
Kyle: "What?"img
TK: "I am sysop, so walk away! I was trying to remove the Skype stuff someone inserted!"img
Bonus: That "Skype Australian phone number"? It's just the ISBN of Palin's book.
Update TK: "It wasn't me, it was a "vandal site lie" from the atheists!img
Kyle: WTF?img
upneutraldown
-47RobS: Sure, Obama got our troops out of Iraq, but all the credit belongs to Bush whose idea it was.img Reality: Disputed.
upneutraldown
121Ken just can't stay away and Hitler makes a triumphant return to mainpageleft!img Andy: "Oh dear. Where can I hide this without offending Ken?"img
upneutraldown
42Andy: New Theories can't develop without discarding the old theories.img Any sarcastic rational person: Wow, I'm glad we threw out that Newtonian model of the universe before we came up with the much more accurate relativistic model.
upneutraldown
62Andy continues his quantifying craze, as he makes a testimg to quantify vulnerability to crimethink atheism. If you or a loved one shows any of these signs, please check in with your local religious authority. He seems to have missed the most important question, "Do you have a brain and can you use it?"
upneutraldown
40Jpatt: 'Let's all laugh at the idiots who predicted the death of conservatism'img...Next sentence: 'Liberalism is dying'...lesson learned
upneutraldown
37How did chipmunks get to the top of the Devils Tower? They flew up there!img
upneutraldown
19Conservative actually makes a good suggestion!img Because if people actually arrive at CP and look at their main page, the thing they'll want the most is getting out again.
upneutraldown
57 Standing 30 metres high, the imposing Lincoln Memorial is set within over 100 acres of parkland at one end of the National Mall and is visited by millions of people each year. Unfortunately, despite being literally down the road from the US Capitol, dirty liberal trickery a temporary technical error at Google has resulted in thousands of patriotic Conservatives unable to locate this landmark in order to attend a Glenn Beck rallyimg.
upneutraldown
70Having successfully quantified open-mindedness,img idolatry,img mental strength,img orderimg and even faith,img Andy moves on to quantify pro-life-ness.img
upneutraldown
36"Homeschoolers are so good at Math Counts competitions that they banned homeschoolers!"img Real story: Some tutoring complexes collected highly gifted students together as "homeschoolers" in order to game the system and produce "super teams", and regular homeschoolers shouldn't have to suffer being unable to compete.
upneutraldown
57Because a true patriot would continue to cover up the fact that the US tortures some people and discriminates against othersimg
upneutraldown
123Ken: "Gentlemen, my work is done here!"img RobS backs away slowly, keeping his hands in plain sightimg.
upneutraldown
113Ken: "Andy likes this picture so no one is allowed to remove it.img" Four minutes later . . . Andy: "Lets replace Ken's picture with one of my own.img" Ken: "I didn't say nothing"img
upneutraldown
48God is always there to step in and clean up for usimg Wasn't God supposed to be happy with the world as he made it originally? Of course, it's impossible that a new species could arise by any other means than God. It's not like a new species arising due to a change in the environment is exactly what evolution by natural selection is about. Update: Andy: "Of course the Pakistan flood wasn't God's doing!"img Yeah! After all, who would believe that God would send a flood and... uh... *cough*
upneutraldown
24McCain defeats Hayworth. Terry Koeckritz does a victory dance on the mainpage.img Andy reveals a case of sour grapes.img
upneutraldown
22Ken createsimg a new talk pageimg that doesn't redirect to a locked article! Bonus lulz comes from the fact that the comment was never madeimg, [read oversighted] and the commenter has been blocked for forever, 13 days ago!img
upneutraldown
-3After JPratt just broke The Perfect 20-40-80-160 Patternimg by inserting a word for the 1800's early, we wonder how will they return the 1800's to 80? Stay tuned!
upneutraldown
42Stop confusing poor Karajou with concepts like "reading," "fact-checking" or "accuracy"img in the news. In TK's words, "what is there to be careful about?"
upneutraldown
84Why do liberals crave attention? Because they are incapable of doing anything meaningful!img Update: Projection much?img
upneutraldown
26No talk on Conservapedia about how the Fields Medal was not awarded to a woman, despite Andy's prediction. (No link... they're just ignoring this fail.)
upneutraldown
62According to Andy, being peace-loving appears to be yet another nasty liberal trait.img
upneutraldown
49Andy: "The liberal math elite have honored someone from Vietnam, even though he dislikes it so much he is leaving it for America (and oh yeah, the human rights record there is getting worse)"img Truth: Vietnamese born professor dislikes New Jersey so much that he is leaving for a job in America
upneutraldown
65After a long, long day of Conservapedia getting blasted by a large amount of bot-made vandalism and having it all to be reverted, Andy is glad to say one thing...Conservapedia now has over 780,000 page edits!img
upneutraldown
19CP: Told ya something was up about that evil liberal atheist Wikileaks founder - he's a rapist!!!!img Chief prosecutor Eva Finne:"I don't think there is reason to suspect that he has committed rape."
upneutraldown
50EdBot finally inducesimg some sanityimg into the CP Main Page.
upneutraldown
82Ed Poor proves the absenceimg of censorshipimg at Conservapedia by creating a newimg exampleimg.
upneutraldown
-6It's not "a navy boat" as those liberals at the AP claim...it's actually, well, a navy boatimg
upneutraldown
64Reporterimg...hip-hop artist. What's the difference?
upneutraldown
75As Andy "2+2=4" Schlafly plows headlong intoimg theimg worldimg ofimg mathematicsimg without a clue where he's going. The inevitable result: division by zeroimg
upneutraldown
1245th Aug: liberal revisionism is responsible for the credit given to crappy Brit mathematiciansimg. 17th Aug: liberal censorship will not stop the ConservaMath Medal recognising the deserved achievementsimg of an English mathematician. Two weeks is a long time in the heady world of cutting-edge mathematical research Update, 19th: confirmed! the meritorious picks (Americans, Brits) were indeed passed over by the liberal elitesimg.
upneutraldown
83Andy: Just because I disparaged someone's body of work based solely on their country of origin,img that doesn't make me a racist!img
upneutraldown
35Will Conservapedia be ahead of the curve once again?img
upneutraldown
50Conservapedia's recent burst of publicity is making it lots of new friends, presumably at an exponentially doubling rate.
upneutraldown
14Professor: Some colleges aren't worth the priceimg Andy: Don't forget about the liberals!
upneutraldown
112Who needs a Nobel Prize or a Fields Medal when you can be the proud recipient of the Conservapedia Prizeimg ConservaMath Medalimg?
upneutraldown
89 Misogyny laid bare, as Andy says "Surely you should concede that a woman is not among the top four contenders based on merit."img In fact, just read the whole damn section. There's too much to WIGO.img
upneutraldown
28Ken stretches the definition of 'essay' to breaking point...and beyondimg.
upneutraldown
60Conservapedia Exclusive: Why won't anyone in the Lamestream media publish our guesses?img
upneutraldown
45Who needs enemies with friends like these? Andy: "Don't worry, folks, conservatives will cut government funding from universities!"img
upneutraldown
35Rob, if you're really concerned about homophobia and anti-gay bigotryimg, you've got your workimg cutimg outimg for you.
upneutraldown
-28Maybe Poor's newest stubimg should redirect to here. Just a thought.
upneutraldown
62Andy: Liberal professors are piling on this BOTPimg but don't worry, it's just sour grapes because conservatives working from home are going to do more than they ever could. Update: Now the liberals are going to give a fields medal to a WOMAN!img
upneutraldown
98There is nothing impossible about people rising from the deadimg Update Nothing in the Bible violates the laws of physics!img
upneutraldown
85TK: Judge who ruled that same-sex marriages can resume is a flaming gay liberalimg. Reality: Judge who overruled Proposition 8 was first nominated to the federal bench by Ronald Reagan, blocked by Democrats and gay rights groups, nominated again by George H.W. Bush, very nearly blocked by Democrats and gay rights groups a second time.
upneutraldown
34Ed sez "Safe Sex is a myth!"img
upneutraldown
31The list of concepts which Karajou does not understand grows to include "support". User: I don't like Dawkins or Nazis, but "saying Dawkins supports the Nazis is stupid."img Der Koward: Auf Wiedersehen, Nazi supporter! Raus! Raus!img
upneutraldown
102Andy: "There are no counterexamples to the Bible!"img TK: "And there never will be!"img UPDATE: Various editors find someimg but according to Andy, they're all trivialimg. To finish, even Andy is too lie-bur-alimg for Karajou !
upneutraldown
98Andy: "We're the number one talked about story on Talking points memo!"img but fails to link to it, Maybe because he is being roundly mocked both in the article and in the comments section TK: helps expose Andy's problemimg.
upneutraldown
103That can't be right.img
upneutraldown
109Brian Cox just twitterdotted conservapedia. Look! Big Science is paying attention to us! Reddit then picked up the story. That is why there are so many server errors. UPDATE: PZ weighs in: "Andy Schlafly is a real boon to us Gnu Atheists who argue that religion rots your brain.".
upneutraldown
82Andy updates the main page with more hard dataimg. Update: Andy makes it... er... less conciseimg. Plot Twist: "Dad, we need to talk..."img. Update: GO TO YOUR ROOMimg!
upneutraldown
77Tbunton: Do you guys actually read your sourcesimg, or is this just page after page of non-sequitur copy and pastes? Ken: This non-sequitur copy and pasteimg will answer your question.
upneutraldown
51DeanS:I'm throwing in the towelimg
upneutraldown
52Andy doesn't understand when the middle ages were, and he's not aloneimg
upneutraldown
9Don't hold your breath waiting for an answer Debbie.img All of Ken's "essay's" talk pages seem to get hijacked to Evolution. Update:Files now, too, deserve their own redirects!img
upneutraldown
81You might be an Anglophileimg if...
upneutraldown
24Teakettle adds a story about those evil Iraniansimg Andy removes it!!!img despite its being from Faux News because it's "based on unapproved, offensive content on a mere website". Wonders never cease.
upneutraldown
61Didn't get enough of the original transitional flying kitty? No worries. Ken decided to drop by and add, oh, only 265 more.img You won't be the only one to see it - it's also on the main page.img Update: Don't worry, dial-up users, Ken will give you guys a break by removing a plan for a future "essay".img Wait, nevermind, he just made plans to make nine more.img
upneutraldown
115Andy: "The English are notoriously bad at mathematics"img Victim: Please Sir, what about Newton?"img Andy: "Silence peon. Newton doesn't count because he's pre-modern and pre-Britain.img Oh yes, and Babbage, Alan Turing, Bertrand Russell, Roger Penrose and Andrew Wiles "don't even come close to being great mathematicians."The Rest: See the madness for yourself.img
upneutraldown
36Liberals are keeping people on the dole by cutting their food stamp benefits.img
upneutraldown
52Ken's gif makes the front pageimg Update: Andy drops trow and pitches in on the task of fertilizing the visual fieldimg
upneutraldown
45 Andy: Fox News multimedia filler? Incomplete information with no data cited from anywhere but a single site? Another startling expose of Liberal Claptrap!img PS: Liberal Claptrap now encapsulates Investment Banking, "Corporate Work" (???), Architecture and Manual Labor.
upneutraldown
51A picture is worth a thousand words. Unfortunately, the 14 words of this "essayimg" aren't among them. UPDATE: More encyclopaedicimginsightimg.
upneutraldown
4Conservapedia land: Professor gets his job back after being fired for stating his beliefimg Reality land: Professor gets his job back after indoctrinating students with his belief
upneutraldown
63Andy: "No [article] locking is permanent"img. Reality: Evolutionimg article has been officially locked "indefinitely"img for over three years. Andy again: "there are several ways that any editor can contribute"img. Reality again: The last time the article was edited by anyone other than one editor was March 2009img, 550 edits agoimg.
upneutraldown
81RonLar: statistics, pictures, analysis!img Andy: "Quantity is no substitute for quality! You didn't address the oil wells!"img UPDATE TK says "Nobody likes a clever dickimg"
upneutraldown
47That pesky 81, is going to screw up the whole "PERFECT 20-40-80-160" thing. No worries, we'll just find a good all too convenient reason to delete one of the wordsimg.
upneutraldown
101Andy: How come no one writes papers about how relativity is a liberal conspiracy?img It must be because it is being censored.
upneutraldown
19Doctor Babyshakes!!! Paging Doctor Babyshakes!!!img
upneutraldown
73FINALLY!! Straight from the horse's mouth. If you ain't a conservative, you must be a liberal.img Yes, it's all black and white in Andy's world.
upneutraldown
67 Andyimg: "It's easy to search for "general relativity" and "conservative field" on the internet and see how little has been written about this. That is telling in itself." (It sure is. The reason so little has been written about the juxtaposition of these two terms is that they have almost nothing to do with each other, as had just been explained to youimg.) Nice attempt at Douche Physik.
upneutraldown
48The Assfly finally gets round to reading his talkpage, and upon finding it filled with Ken's pleas for attention, deletes the lot.img He also oversights the more embarrassing stuffimg for good measure.
upneutraldown
59No doubt about it, Ken That's what professional debt collectors do when faced with a non-work-related problem. They run off to the nearest churchimg to ask for funding for spamming the internet.
upneutraldown
68Andy: "Finding the best new conservative words is like drilling for oil."img...you end up spewing shit all over the place
upneutraldown
88Counterexamples to the Bible? There are none!img
